It’s sickening how these has been left wing bomb throwers are so hard up to be ” cool by association ” these insist upon devoting hour, upon hour of their programming going into minute retelling the life and times of the lives, usually only Fox employees, but lately Andrew Breitbart and now even James O’Keefe. They do so in the name of political saire, or liberal comedy, when the real reason is closer to an unhealthy John Hickley jr. sort of, they have no life of their own, so they’ll gain notariety by stealing someone elses.

Funny segment.

Tommy… gotta love The Princess Bride. :)

Isn’t the line about wiretapping a lie? The writers seem to have a lot of anger at James for exposing what he has exposed. He (Colbert) and his writers seem to want to make sure they protect James next target as much as possible. Liberals offering liberals cover. SHOCKING!!!

P.S. Tommy, I thought the boat thing was totally over the line. But I also think Barney Frank having a brothel, a pot farm, and a stalker for a lover is totally over the line too. And he still has his job… right?

“… his plot to strand reporter Abbie Boudreau on a boat full of sex toys and video cameras….
but fails to mention the gut-busting climax of the “CNN Caper,” which was to leave the married Boudreau in tears, adrift on the dildo boat, begging to be returned to shore.”

Shouldn’t that read “alleged”?

“The sexually explicit document CNN is now “reporting” on was never going to be implemented as written. She saw how I was dressed that day, with my usual blazer and collared shirt. In the document she reported as being “authentic,” I was supposed to have been dressed with my chest exposed, slicked backed hair, with gold chains. That ought to have been a red flag the document was not a reflection of my true intentions. Ms. Boudreau was never going to be put in the bizarre situations outlined in the document CNN reported. There were no mirrors, sex tapes, blindfolds, fuzzy handcuffs, posters of naked women, or music. Sorry, you were not going to see my face saying the words “Bubble Headed Beach Blonde who comes on at 5” into a video camera. Those are Don Henley lyrics – and we know, thanks to Chuck DeVore, how much Henley loathes parody.”

Correct, there was no attempt to wiretap, nor were the charged or accused of wiretapping.

The convict and serial liar James O’Keefe warrants no defense.

Maybe when his probation ends in 2013, Fox “News” will hire O’Keefe.

Colbert does a quick, admiring rundown of O’Keefe’s illustrious history, including his stint as the ACORN pimp (yeah, those dummies believed he was a pimp even though he’s so damn white!),”

Gees,Tommy, that sure is a racist statement. So you believe all pimps are black?

BTW, dildos, handcuffs and a blindfold is a fun night at the Colbert home!

so-called NPR sting video

NPR: Check.

Sting: Check.

Apparently it’s “so-called” because Tommy didn’t like the results. But hey, Colbert said some stuff!

Interesting. I didn’t catch that. I wonder when a sting video is “so called” and when it is not?

Does it bother you that NPR lied? They claimed they never offered to hide where the donation came from… lie #1. They claim they “rejected” the donation… lie #2.

Maybe CNN will. They hired Rick Sanchez and Jack Cafferty after EACH ran over innocent people while drunk AND leaving their victims as they ran fro the scene of the crash . Rick’s victim eventually died in a nursing home years later of his injures after suffering years of pain and agony as a vegetable. CLASSY…

Has James done anything to anyone on that level?

No, but’s he young and seems willing.

I have no excuse for Sanchez or Cafferty, and I accept none from a lying convict either.

I really don’t read Tommy’s or Colby’s articles anymore. They are snarky and usually full of errors and mistakes. But when you point them out, like in the case of Colby Hall, you get banned.

Not to nitpick (i mean that) but I think to qualify for the title of “convict” you have to have done time in prison (ie: sentenced to more than a year of time). I may be wrong. I’m not sure but I think O’Keefe was sentenced to probation for a misdemeanor. I won’t argue the liar part since I feel he falls into the same category as Maddow who lied about the WI budget.

pretty sure your boy beck covered this on the blaze and concluded they rejected the donation.

Death certainly takes it to another level. However I’d say almost locking someone on a boat full of sex toys is pretty comparable. Also, cnn has had some of the worst employment decisions ever as of late. Elliot spitzer, Piers morgan etc.

also begs the question why there was a discussion of a plan in the first place. Either way your boy okeefe is a pretty sick guy.

“Hey, look over there!” I was talking about Tommy’s use of “so-called,” but go ahead.

In case you’re still confused, Nationman: it’s a sting on NPR that’s was recorded on video. It doesn’t cease to be an NPR sting video just because you don’t like what happened as a result.

I’m not sure what your objection is. It is, in fact, a video that is, in fact, being so called. Do you want links of people calling it that?

You’re making almost as much sense as Nationman, Tommy.

“So-called NPR sting video.”

Nationman said:

I will agree with you that O’Keefe and Moore are very similar in what they do.

Tommy Christopher said:

Are they one’s with “fact” and not “opinion” that it is so called? Are they claiming that O’Keefe changed what NPR actually said in the videos? O’Keefe does nothing that Moore does not do. He does what it takes to get on film what he wants on film. If you do it for the left your invited to the DNC convention to sit next to Carter. If your on the right your vilified.

P.S. Still love The Princess Bride reference though. Best movie ever.

ACORN pimp (yeah, those dummies believed he was a pimp even though he’s so damn white!), his criminal conviction for “wiretapping” the office of Sen. Mary Landrieu (he actually pled guilty to entering federal property under false pretenses, but I’m sure Colbert was making an honest mistake)

my question is, who actually uses moore as a source for their information or even a pretense to do something? That’s what the right is doing with okeefe now.
